In OL 2003 you can have two signatures for each account, one for new e-mails
and one for replies.

The accounts you can find in the registry under:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows
Messaging Subsystem\Profiles\[User]\9375CFF0413111d3B88A00104B2A6676\

The signature files are under:
c:\documents and settings\[user]\Application Data\Microsoft\Signatures

The file name is equal to the signature name. That value you can read in the
registry, and for each name there´re three files (*.txt, *.html, *.rtf).

Default Getting signature file name/location

what version of outlook? sigs are stored in a signature folder under
C:\Documents and Settings\username\ - but you need to read the registry to
know which is used or set as default (ol2003).
